Roger and Stanislas Wawrinka advanced to the second round of the London Olympics thanks to a 6-7(5), 6-4, 6-4 victory over Kei Nishikori and Go Soeda of Japan.

The Swiss missed a total of four break chances in the opening set, but secured the second thanks to an early break. They managed just the same in the third set, not giving away the advantage of an early lead after a break and wrapping up the match upon the second match-ball after 2 hours and 16 minutes.

What a wonderful day with you Champ and it ended with another victory. Highly entertaining match, so beautiful to watch. Stan was awsome on serve .Doubles tennis is my game and it's so much fun. But to watch you play it with Stan, it's a slice of heaven. Make it another fun match tomorrow. We'll be waiting, watching and loving you .. Go Suisse, best of luck
